[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: thank you, everyone. how are you doing? that's very nice. thank you, cleto. hi, i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thank you for joining us here in the studio. everybody's dressed warm. people are wearing scarves. it's very nice. it's a big night tonight for petty gamblers. the biggest powerball drawing in history, $550 million is tonight. it's annoying to me when people say they would keep their jobs if they won the lottery. i once quit a job after winning a medium sized coke in the mcdonald's monopoly game. so, i don't understand that. but for millions of people, powerball, this lottery, is an opportunity for your dream to come true, especially if your dream is to lose a dollar. [ laughter ] with a prize this big, i feel like they should play the drama

up a little bit more. what if, instead of picking a winner a single drawing, we eliminate one ticket every night until there's one left. obviously the odds winning this aren't good. nbc news in chicago came up with unlikely scenarios that are more likely to happen to you than winning the powerball and it's quite a list. >> you have a better chance of becoming an astronaut. being elected president. winning an academy award or being instruct my lightning multiple times. still, that doesn't stop players from planning how they'll spend their winnings. >> i think i would buy an island. i would just buy an island. it would be my island. >> jimmy: i would go to live all alone on tinted sun glass island. i hope he wins. i would luke ike to see him go n island. i just want to be paid with one of those giant checks. wouldn't that be great. take it to the bank, try to feed it into the atm? there have been a lot of local

news reporters crammed into convenience stores this week, talki ining to the people buyine lottery tickets. this is real. this is from the cbs affiliate in pittsburgh. >> putting down your money, you're buying more than just the lottery ticket. you're buying a license to dream. >> i'm going to buy the gas station and give everybody a raise. >> jimmy kimmel, yes, that is his name, is here and plays so often, they call him lucky. he's got almost $30 on the night. >> i'm a scrapper. i scrap every day. i'm going to buy myself a brand new truck. >> jimmy: why would -- why would he even want to win the pow er powerball. he hit the jackpot already. he's named after me. we have to track that guy down. jimmy, if you're watching -- [ applause ] i would like to speak to you. and i'm going to kill you. it's just like "looper." unfortunately, that jimmy kimmel is the only jimmy kimmel who got to participate in tonight's powerball drawing. we don't have powerball here in california. california is one of the eight states that does not participate in it.

only way to get $550 million in california is to divorce arnold schwarzenegger, so -- i know this would be a good opportunity for a social experiment. i discovered recently that people are very willing to lie when faced with a video camera. today, we went out onto hollywood boulevard and asked the locals passing buy if they bought their powerball tickets, which is impossible to do here in california. and here are the results of, this is tonight's edition of "lie-witness news." >> we're talking to people today about the $550 million powerball jackpot tonight. >> yeah. >> did you buy your ticket? >> five, actually. >> you bought five tickets? awesome, where did you get them? >> down at the gas station where i live. >> was it busy? >> yeah, a lot of people were coming out. >> here in los angeles, right? >> north hollywood, yeah. >> did you buy your ticket today? >> i did. i went in with a couple of people and we bought 20 tickets. >> where did you get them? >> i don't know, everybody anted

up and he went to some 7-eleven, on cherokee. >> that's cool. was there a big line? >> actually, there wasn't. >> did you buy your ticket today? >> yes, this morning. >> this morning? where did you get it? >> sherman oaks. >> sherman oaks? and was there a big line there for it? >> yeah. >> yeah? did you debt your ticket? >> sure. of course. >> where did you get them? >> somewhere around here. yeah. >> did you get your ticket? >> yes, i did. >> where did you get it? >> a store close by. >> oh, yeah? a big line? >> no. >> it was easy? >> yeah. >> did you buy a ticket today? >> i did, yeah, i did. about 300 million other people in l.a. >> you bought it right in l.a.? >> yeah, just down the street. it was ridiculous, the line was huge, all the way around the corner. >> we're talking to people about the $550 million powerball jackpot. did you get your ticket? >> no. they don't have powerball in california.

[ applause ] >> jimmy: wait a minute. maybe they bought something else. maybe -- maybe they bought powerade and got confused. next time we really should start swearing people in for this. this is interesting. president obama is going to have lunch tomorrow with mitt romney. the mitt romney that e he was against during the election. and you thought you had an awkward meal with your family on thanksgiving. they are eating at the white house. mi mitt, this could have been your private dining room, these could have been your presidential knives and forks. after the president won re-election, he said he wanted to meet with mr. romney because he believes he has ideas that can be very helpful. it's a nice gesture, considering the fact that he hasn't let joe biden have lunch with him even once. here's what i don't get. for the last eight months, mitt romney has been saying nobody should get a free lunch. now, he's going to the white

house to have a free lunch. the -- you know, it doesn't make sense. the holiday season officially kicked off in new york city tonight with the lighting of the tree, the big christmas tree. the tree lighting ceremony aired on nbc. only nbc would make a television event out of plugging something in. people came from as far away as japan to see the tree lighting. came from staten island to see working electricity it was nice. the city of new york meanwhile hate something else to celebrate this week. on monday, for the first time since law enforcement officials can remember, no one in new york city was, quote, shot, stabbed or slashed. is there a difference between getting stab and slashed? seems like they might be trying to make this sound more impressive than it is, but unfortunately, the big news resulted in a series of celebratory stabbings, so -- [ laughter ] actually, the record almost went out the window. a 16-year-old kid walked into the hospital in the bronx with a

gunshot wound to his thigh but the police determined that he accidentally shot himself. kid must have been confused when the cops congratulated him on that. i think i know why there were no shootings, stabbings or slashing on monday. people were too exhausted from shooting, stabbing and slashing other shoppers on black friday. [ applause ] thank you. oh -- thanks, guys. did any of you watch the show "teen mom" on mtv, a reality show, it's -- yes? what, are you one of the teen moms? why are you pointing at her? she watches it. it's on tv, you know? . one of the fourteen moms is a fine young lady named janelle. she's on probation after a number of arrests for things like drug possession, but the drug offered here a deal to get off probation. all she would have to do is spent a short amount of time in jail. but when she sat down with her attorney, she wasn't entirely sure she wanted to take that deal. >> my lawyer talked to my

probation officer again. it sounds like they might be able to get me less jail time. i'm thinking about taking it. >> what they are asking for is the 8th through the 23rd. it would be a total of 15 days in jail. >> well, see, the only thing is, on the 9th, i got second row seats to go see a concert. it's ke$ha. >> i understand. the problem is that -- that's not going to fly with your probation officer. >> no, no, you don't understand, this is my idol. she's like my idol and i really can't miss that concert. i really can't. that's why i got all these feathers in my air. >> jimmy: ex-plain that plain t judge. i think he'd understand. very good reason for the feathers in her hair. fortunately, her lawyer was eventually able to talk some sense into janelle. >> i mean, i understand that the

concert's important to you, but you can have all of this behind you in just a couple of weeks, be done with it. >> like -- like no one understands how important this concert is to me. it's not -- it's not just a concert. it's ke$ha, like, it's -- >> just think about it. >> it's the person, it's not, oh, i want to go to a random concert. it's ke$ha, like, my idol, the girl that i watch videos on you the tu tube 30 times a day. i'm obsessed with this girl. >> just think about it. >> jimmy: i wonder how ke$ha feels about this. on one hand, it nice to have the fan. on the other hand, your fan is an idiot. how does she have time to watch the video 30 times a day and raise a kid? she must be some kind of super mom. in technology news, afterle has fired richard williamson, who is in charge of developing apple maps. they gave him one year of

severance and two years to find his way out of the building. he's taking the news -- [ applause ] he's taking the news -- oh, the hell with it. his new plan, his plan is become the world's worst contestant on "the amazing race." here is another story about technology gone wrong. a sophomore at new york university, kid named max whistletier became very famous very quickly on campus on monday when he accidentally sent an e-mail to every person at nyu. the school sent some sort of a tax form to the student body and this kid max forwarded it to his mom, or thought he did, turned out he hit reply all and sent that message to his mom to 40,000 classmates instead. and -- it started a huge chain of e-mails with thousands of students replying all to his message. they really should move that reply all button. it should be hidden under your mattress. so many responses to the e-mail

people on campus started calling it replay all-calypse. i want to meet the guy who parked this great thing, so, we tracked him down and he's here with us now live via skype from his dorm room at nyu. it's max. hello, max. >> hey. >> what a neat dorm room that is. so, tell us about the now notorious e-mail you sent. >> um -- well, basically i tried to send an e-mail to my mom and i got the button wrong, some misclick or something happened and i -- i sent it to 40,000 students and i immediately, after my roommate told me that i sent him an e-mail, i sent out another e-mail saying, sorry, to everyone. and sort of figured out that

they could also reply all to that. >> jimmy: they shouldn't be able to do that, right? that seems like something that people shouldn't be able to do. >> right, right. the school sort of admitted that they got the list serve soft wear mixed up or something like that. >> jimmy: what did the other students write to you? >> i got everything from threats telling me that i should leave school to people wanting me to run for president. class body president, people telling me i need to use e-mail. >> jimmy: how many responses did you get? >> i got about -- a few thousands. >> jimmy: wow. so, what school are going to transfer to now? and what does the e-mail to your mom say specifically? >> it said, "do you want me to do this?" because it was something to do with changing from a paper tax form to an electronic tax form. >> jimmy: just out of curiosity, how often do you e-mail your mom? >> i guess pretty regularly, if

i need advice or help with something. >> jimmy: by advice or help, you mean money? i understand you're pretty popular now. have you gotten any dates or anything out of this? >> ah -- not yet, a couple parties are being thrown in my honor. >> jimmy: oh, that's nice. acapella concert is being named after me. >> jimmy: wow. what's your major at nyu. i hope it's not communications. >> business and finance with a minor in computer science. >> jimmy: oh, really? [ laughter ] well, you probably haven't gotten to the computer science 401, which is, deals with reply all. does everyone have your mom's e-mail address as a result of this? >> i don't think so, only because it didn't really forward to her, it was more i just hit the wrong button. >> jimmy: i got you. maybe you should stick to writing letters for awhile, the

old fashioned way. thank you for talking to us, max. have fun at the party. who is scheduled to play at the big concert in your honor? >> um -- it's one of the acapella groups at nyu. >> jimmy: oh. you might want to just go home for the weekend.

[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: how are you doing? >> i'm good. i'm good. >> jimmy: i'm pretty sure you win the award for person who traveled farthest to be here tonight because you came in from australia, right? >> i did, yes, i -- i take no responsibility for anything that comes out of my mouth tonight. >> jimmy: oh, because you're jet lagged? >> i flew in from melbourne this morning, it was this morning, yes. but i'm feeling okay. >> jimmy: i feel like you're doing a fake accent right now. >> no, this is -- this is -- >> jimmy: that's you? >> this is my accent. >> but you play americans a lot and i didn't realize -- i guess i didn't realize that -- of course, i realized it years later. i think, in the adam sandler movie, the first time, i was like, what the hell is going on here? >> it was the only time it became a real problem was the

first time in about ten years i got to use my own accent was in "funny people" and people weren't impressed. >> jimmy: what do you mean? >> it wasn't fancy. >> jimmy: who said this to you? >> people just, you know, people. people. and i wanted to beat them up. >> jimmy: yeah, sure. that's the only reasonable response to have. >> but i was just using my own accent. >> jimmy: americans, we're not that bright, but we are 0 opinionated and that's the most important thing. do you do other accents or is it american specifically? >> i -- you know, i do -- it's a necessity in order to get paid, seems to be that hollywood doesn't like talking in our native tongue. >> jimmy: you can think of it that way or is that it's impressive when, i mean, there are a lot of americans to choose from here in america. i mean, millimeters smillions then they say, you're so good at it, we're going to overlook the fact you're a foreigner that's come here to take our women.

>> i'm not -- i'm not -- i'm not going to challenge the theory because it's working for me right now. i don't want to dismantle whatever the -- >> jimmy: where did you learn to do it? >> well, i used to do a lot of impressions when i was a kid, you know, in the family home and also, mainly to just get out of detention at school. i would do other teachers at school and just try and get out of trouble, basically and use it as currency. >> jimmy: did the teachers like it? >> they did. they used to pull me aside in the corridor and ask me to do other teachers, like, on the sly, could you do, you know, the pot smoking p.e. teacher for me, do the principal. and i would get better grades and i would get out of trouble by doing the impressions. >> jimmy: must have been really good. >> i prefer the currency now, but it was, yeah, it was good. >> jimmy: i had a teacher that i would imitate also, his name was mr. mcmosely. here's how that went. kimmel, i'm going to put my foot up your ass.

that was the result i got. i did not get the same thing. and he threw a handful of keys at me. so, did you -- would you use it to make tranni crank calls? >> i used to love to crank call. and i grew up in the era of the cb radio. >> jimmy: i loved the cb radio. >> i was married to my cb radio. >> jimmy: was it in your house? >> it was in a car out in the garage and i would go out there and i would get on it and just pretend to be anyone and everything. i liked playing a trucker. >> jimmy: well, that's who's on cb. what does an australian trucker sound like? >> good day, mate, look -- >> jimmy: just like you, basically. [ laughter ] >> what's your 10-4, there's an eve we nieve on the side of the cue -- >> jimmy: it's not what your 10-4, it's your 20. 10-4 means yes. what kind of trucking is gone on over there? >> there's a 10-1. [ applause ]

>> jimmy: you would get on the radio with the truckers who are driving by? >> yes. we lived close to the highway. but i would get a bit scared if the signal started to get a bit strong, you know, like, over 4 1/2 to 5, i would just go quiet. because you used to try to get people, used to try -- we would wait for the signal to get stronger to track down where other people are. >> jimmy: we used to do exactly the same thing. well into adulthood, i should say. it didn't end when i was a child. >> this was in my 30s. >> jimmy: right, well, good. i'm glad to hear that. are your parents, were they born in australia? >> no, my parents were from europe. dad from croatia, mom from germany. >> jimmy: oh, wow. wow. and why did they come over to australia? >> that's a very good question. >> jimmy: thank you. >> i think it was, you know, just your classic post world war ii australia -- i have no idea, i never asked them that question.

it seems bloody obvious, doesn't it, but -- i think everyone was escaping out of europe at that time, right? >> jimmy: yeah. a lot of people from europe got sent to australia as a sentence. >> punishment, yeah. >> jimmy: but that was not part of the deal with your parents? >> no, no. >> jimmy: maybe that was. maybe that's why they haven't told you what was going on over there. >> convict history there. we were part of the non-convict australia, the european. >> jimmy: so, croatian and german. >> yes. volatile combination. >> jimmy: is that right? in what way? was family there or did you abandon the family? >> mainly the german side of the family. and they were okay, except for sundays. sundays were just brutal. >> jimmy: in what way? >> it was the family gathering at my grandparents house and just play cards all day, which led to near suicide sort of murder packs, because they would always argue about the rules for the cards. and as a kid, i was like, you've been playing the same game for 30 years.

how can you possibly still be arguing over the rules? >> jimmy: it's a very good question. >> i don't know if it was a cold lunch and the thought of the liv liverwurst that -- >> jimmy: who would win? >> i had one uncle who was very clever. >> jimmy: what was his name? >> my uncle claus. he would get $55, $10 up, he wod leave the house. he would just grab his kids and leave the building. >> jimmy: take the money and run. >> yeah. he should have become a professional gambler and gone to vegas. >> jimmy: no kidding. that takes a lot of self-control. is he still with us? >> he's still with us, yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: bring him the next time you're here. we're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back. the new movie is called "de "deadfall." eric bana is here. we'll be right back. ah-choo!

prepare like she normally would, though i've got a gun on them. >> jimmy: yeah, you're a real uncle claus in this movie. it didn't seem like it was a fun movie to shoot. i was watching it and thinking, i mean, you're in the snow half of the time, there's a lot of violence, there -- it didn't seem like kind of relaxing film that celebrities enjoy. >> it was fun. i wouldn't say it was overly comfortable. my character and olivia's character crash a car in the middle of the snowstorm. we're not dressed for the occasion and we have to hike out of there and we're not stressed. i'm in a two-piece suit with dress shoes. olivia, god love her is, in a mini skirt. minus 25 in the montreal winter and spending weeks traipsing through snow. i turn around and see, actually, you wouldn't see the screw, you just kind of see the eyes, all the tech gear they have on -- >> jimmy: they should be dressed like you are dressed for that sort of thing. well, the movie is really good

>> jimmy: when did you realize that the show had become this, not just big hit but also something that people are very, very passionate about? >> well, jimmy, it was when i got invited to the white house by the president. >> jimmy: that did it? of the united states? >> you know, it -- it was kind of interesting. that's what wtook us biey surpr. no one was expecting it. and everyone was talking about it and the president said it was his favorite show. >> jimmy: that was a big deal. >> incredible. and very exciting. >> jimmy: what partal of england are you from? >> london. i grew up on abbey road, in fact. >> jimmy: oh, you did? wow. i've been to the studio there. >> yeah. >> jimmy: and people are always posing for pictures, like, the beat beatles, walking across the street with no shoes on, right? >> all the time. we call them zebra crossings,

black and white stripes. yeah. i used to walk past there all the time as a kid and on the wall outside would be, you know, just covered in graffiti because people are from all over the world would come and just spray can all over it. and then you walk by the next morning and it would be pristine white and some guy come out in the night and just -- >> jimmy: with a pain roller? maybe he did the white album. maybe he took the artwork off the white album. >> that's it. >> jimmy: you find that hard core fans of the show want information from you or do they cover their ears for fear they might learn something? >> you know, it's different for different people. i had a weird moment with a journalist who was doing unofficial interview and asked to do the interview by showtime and fox and then she said, can you tell me what happens at the end? and i went, well, no, i can't. and would you write it in the interview. she said, no, but i just want to know for myself. and i said, well, then, but you're a fan of the show, you

just told me. i know, but i can't stand being that tense! i just want to know what happens! >> jimmy: needs to relax. >> yeah, she really -- yeah. >> jimmy: that is -- the show is very tense. but on the set, is it like that? very serious or are you guys, you know, throwing footballs around? >> yeah, you know, we juggle and ride unicycles and -- yeah, no, it's -- you know, sometimes it is very focused. because we're all just trying to make sense of it and keep it interesting and plausible. >> jimmy: right. >> and then at other times, you know, mandy patinkin and i will sing a showtune or -- >> jimmy: mandy patinkin, broadway god. legend. he's in the show. >> we actually -- i've done one musical in my life, i did "into the woods." i didn't play that part, thank goodness. but i played one of the princes and i started singing it, i was

hundreding it a inin ining -- h mandy went, "i know that tune." er with doing a duet. then, he went, no, no, the note is wrong. come here, sit with me. he sat me down on the sofa and corrected me the whole way through the song. >> jimmy: sounds like mandy's a lot of fun. that was a pretty good mandy patinkin imitation that you did. you got -- no, he's -- mandy, i adore mandy and he is -- he is, i have to say, arguably the great exponent, you know -- >> jimmy: i don't know what that means but i'm totally with you on that. >> it's a moo sheachine tool. >> jimmy: had you done theater? >> yeah, i started out doing classical theater. i went to theater school and, you know, i played romeo and hall hamlet. on broadway very early on. >> jimmy: what did you do, what show? >> it was a very celebrated

performance by ray fine finnes playing hamlet. you have that incredible sword fight at the end and the duel and i'm like miming everything i'm doing. he was playing hamlet, we did a duel and -- >> jimmy: using real swords? >> sabres with the pommel here and the legendary bill hobbs choreographed the fight. he did "the three musketeers," he's done all the great blade movies. and anyway, one night, actually, this fight was getting faster and faster and faster, because we were just getting kind of cocky and we were just a bunch of 20-year-old horny englishmen on broadway having the time of our life on a smash hit show and so we were staying out later and later and then it finally, it just got to a point where the thing was going too quick for me and i was just doing this and ray was sort of thrusting at me and i was -- and just one night,

he came at me particularly hard and i sort of one in a tired way, oh, god. and the pommel came back and hit me right above the eye and as soon as it hit me, i thought, that feels bad. i know what a cut feels like. but it was at the point of the fight when hamlet went that way so, we didn't, ray didn't see what he had done. i fell down on the floor and i came up like this and i was like, you know, the bride of dracula was blood just pouring down the side of my face and he didn't stop acting. he was amazing. but he just came closer and closer to me with those piercing blue eyes and he kept going with shakespeare and he went, "are you okay?" and i said, "i don't know, you tell me." because i feel the blood. >> jimmy: is that the rule? it seems ridiculous. >> that's my broadway story. all i could hear people in the audience going, "that's amazing, honey, how do they do that?" >> jimmy: well, they say the

show must go on, but if i'm bleeding from the helad, the show's stopping. i guess that's why i'm not invited to do shakespeare. i tell you what, i think the show is fantastic. i wish you would make more episodes, that's my only criticism. >> thank you. thank you. >> jimmy: if you haven't seen it, it's great.
